I have been slowly but surely putting my z back together and Im doing a carbureted blow through system. My question is what fuel pressure regulator would I use. All the boost reference ones that I see are for EFI and start out at like 12 to 14 psi. Correct me if im wrong but wont I need one that starts out at like 6 or 7 psi for the carburetor while it is not under any boost? James

That clear box is bad @$$, you'll have to bring it back down to san diego and run it sometime. James

cool thanks

what are the rim sizes?

Hey what are the rim dimensions and tire size on the rear, that car looks mean.

Hey what are you looking to get for just the shell? James

Do you know who is putting that kit in a z, Id like to see some pictures to see what all you have to do to get them to fit. James

I think you would be able to use a clutch disc that has a 10 spline eye but the input shaft length would be the detemining factor. I beleive the input shaft is designed to fit into the pilot bearing in the rear of the crankshaft so if they are different it wont work.

give Aspec a call they can handle new orders. ask for Logan hes somewhat sought after when people look for great or extreme offsets and hes very well known in 240sx forums. http://www.aspecproducts.com aim: aspeclogan

Will the 2 step limiter that msd has plug into the 6al box where the pill usually plugs in? James

but am I going to burn it up if it try it?

Im not trying to jack the thread but is it possible to reverse the wires on a fan from a taurus to turn it into a pusher? Thanks

What part of California are you from?

Thanks, I went ahead and ordered that cam. Should I go ahead and order the lifters that they recomend or can I run a set up cheaper ones? James

-At .400 they flow 238/163 and at .500 the flow 244/175 I/E -10.25 to 1 is the compression ratio -the headers are 1 3/4" primary and 3" collectors, the primary tubes are 31" and im not quite sure what the collector length is? -it has a set of roller rockers (harland sharps 1.5) on it -I have been shifting the car a 5900-6000 and have the rev limiter set at 6200, I am not positive but I beleive that the engine is crossing the 1/8 mile mark at some where around 4200-4500rpm -it has a 3700 stall in it but its hard to get it there, so it stalls to 3000 on the launch -I am shifting the car at 5900-6000 myself -I have the nitous set up on a full throttle swithch so I imagine its probably coming in around 3500 cause I have been leaveing on it. -the nitrous doesnt have any kind of window switch on it or any safety shut off stuff on it, it is something that I have been needing to get setup on the car. Thanks for the help James

Sorry I didnt give enough info, I do have a phenolic 2" spacer between the carburetor and the intake. I wanted to run a solid lifter cam but I wasnt to sure about the wear that it would put on the valve train. I want as much input as possible on this so If there is any other info that you need please ask and ill get if for you. Thanks

Other than my z that I am building I also have a 73 chevy vega. I have had this car for about 4 years now and I have been racing it the whole time. I recently pulled the motor looking for a little more. The car runs exceptionally well for the combination. So far to date it has went 6.72@103 with 1.47 60' times with a 150 shot plate system in the 1/8. I have always felt like the car kinda falls over on the top end. Motor is a .030 over 400 flat top forged pistons with 5.7 rods victor junior intake, 850 holley carb heads are edelbrock Performer rpm Part # 6073 70cc chambers The cam is a Lunati .490/.490 lift 290/297 adv duration with a 112 lobe serperation Tranny is a turbo350 3700 hughes converter 12 bolt rearend with 3.73 and 26x8.5 MT's The heads are stock and I dont really want to put all that much money into them cause im looking at putting a whole new motor together within a year, so im just looking at getting a little more out of the motor now and changing the cam to a Comp Cams Extreme Energy 519/523 lift 294/306 adv duration with a 110 seperation To big? To small? Looking for opinions and some input. I recently put some videos on the computer of the car so I thought I would post one on here http://s16.photobucket.com/albums/b33/rustorbust/?action=view&current=Cap0002-1.flv

whether the motor would take it or not your gonna break stuff, but if you dont break stuff it would be good for some 80 mph sideways burnouts on the freeway. I run a 150 shot at the track with my vega and but on the streets with street tires in third gear the car will go sideways when the system in activated. Would make for some good videos though if somone was riding behind you lol.

Hey what shifter are you going to use in the car. I have been looking for an original automatic shifter if your gonna use something different James
